This week the girls have a special treat! They interview their friend, Heather Briggs of My Sew Quilty Life. Heather is a talented quilt pattern and fabric designer who blends her love for quilting, design, and all things floral into a world of creativity and inspiration. Before transitioning into quilting full-time, Heather worked as an Architectural Designer, creating hospitals and healthcare facilities across the U.S. With a Master’s degree in Architecture, she developed valuable skills in composition, attention to detail, and working with shapes—all of which now play a significant role in her quilt designs.

Heather has become known for her floral quilt designs—so much so that some call her the “flower quilt queen.” Her style is a blend of traditional and modern, with a soft, romantic aesthetic that carries through both her quilt patterns and Moda fabric collections.

The girls chat about all kinds of things quilty and even find out what Heather's 3 P's are. She shares her vision for the future and you will be left inspired and smiling. Enjoy this wonderful episode!

To explore more of Heather’s work, visit www.mysewquiltylife.com, and connect with her on Instagram @mysewquiltylife—she loves engaging with fellow quilters and fabric lovers! 💖✨
